Chapter 8: The Long-Haired Woman

"Yang Kui, what are you doing?"

Shen Yihuan put his hands on his waist and roared.

"Didn't you enter the house, why did you appear outside the door, who was behind it?"

I quickly turned around, only to find that there was no one behind me.

What the hell is going on? Where did Shen Yihuan go just now? Who is she? Why did two Shen Yihuan pop up for no reason.

Could it be that everything just now was my hallucination, but now I'm pushing the cart out, and the action is real.

"What's going on?" Shen Yihuan was angry and pressed one hand on the bed.

I don't know if I should tell Shen Yihuan the truth about what happened just now, even if I did, how should I say it? Is it to say that I am alive and dead? Or that I am hallucinating.

"It's okay, I just want to move the deceased towards the door and spread the smell by the way. I didn't dare to look at Shen Yihuan, so I could only whisper a few perfunctory words.

Shen Yihuan frowned, as if he saw my unnaturalness, but he didn't ask any more questions, pressed his hands on the cart, and pushed violently.

The plank bed was returned to its original position along with the corpse.

Shen Yihuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this your makeup?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

"The painting is very vibrant, but here's the problem, don't forget, we're applying makeup to the deceased, and there are still certain requirements. Shen Yihuan picked up a cotton pad and gently wiped the foundation on the deceased's face, making it lighter.

I nodded, carefully looked at Shen Yihuan from head to toe, and at the same time compared it with the Shen Yihuan just now in my mind, and found that the two were almost identical.

I pinched my thigh with my hand, and the pain told me it was real, and I didn't know how to explain it.

"This deceased person should be cremated as soon as possible, and the people outside are here to see him off......"

"Wait, do you want to see a medical examiner again. ”

"What are you looking at?" Shen Yihuan looked at me with wide eyes.

I squeaked and said, "No...... What, I just think it's gone if a good person says no, it's really weird, will there be any case behind this!"

Shen Yihuan slammed the makeup case in his hand on the table, crossed his arms over his chest, and looked at me angrily.

"Yang Kui, you remember, you can't have too many personal feelings and distractions in our business, that kind of thing will interfere with normal judgment, what you said is a problem that our body makeup artist should consider?"

I blushed, I didn't know how to justify, so I could only silently watch Shen Yihuan continue to put on makeup.

"You didn't violate the rules I said, did you?" asked Shen Yihuan with his head down, his voice was very dull, but he was full of confidence.

"What rules?" I picked up the pencil and continued to apply makeup to the deceased to hide the panic in my heart.

"Yesterday at dinner, you and Sun Bald were at the same table, and I saw that you were still talking, but you didn't see each other again. ”

"No!" I didn't dare to look up, let alone look into Shen Yihuan's eyes, for fear that she would see through that I was lying.

"That's good, stay away from him in the future, if he gives you anything, no matter what it is, even if it's gold, silver and jewelry, don't ask for it, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life. Shen Yihuan put down the makeup pen, turned around and took a syringe, which was filled with a pale yellow liquid.

Shen Yihuan injected the syringe into different parts of the deceased's body, and explained by the way: "This is an antiseptic needle, a very important step operation, the deceased can be injected with this needle, and the flesh can not decay in a short time, so as to maintain our makeup." ”

At this time, I didn't have so much leisure to listen to her lectures, and there was only one thing in my mind, that is, what was the brocade box that Sun Bald gave me, and what would happen when I got it in my hands?

I have only been working in the funeral home for two days, and I have been involved in so many trivial matters, the key of which are still unexplained by science, the more I think about it, the more afraid I become, I feel that there is a pair of eyes staring at me in the dark, and my every move is under his surveillance.

"What are you thinking?Did I remember what I just said?" Shen Yihuan put away the syringe and took out a clean suit from the box behind him.

I took a closer look, and it turned out to be Armani's latest, and this outfit cost hundreds of thousands, or even higher.

"Hurry up and dress the deceased, and later you push him to the farewell hall from the back door, the people outside are waiting, we have to hurry." Shen Yihuan shook the suit jacket a few times, and held up the arms of the deceased upwards, with skillful movements and quite neatness.

"Aren't you going with me to the farewell hall?" I pulled my trousers up the deceased's thighs, and it took a lot of effort to get to the right place.

"I've got a few things to do and I'm going to stay and clean up. You can do it yourself, remember to talk less, don't be polite to people, the last time someone said goodbye, you got a mouthful. ”

Shen Yihuan held gauze in his hand to make the final repairs to the deceased, and I silently stood aside.

After everything was done, Shen Yihuan led me to push the deceased to move towards the back door.

The back door of the dressing room was a somewhat mottled iron door, and there seemed to be some elusive patterns carved on it, and I always felt like I had seen it somewhere, but I couldn't remember it for a while.

"See, go through the hallway in front of you, turn left at the end and you'll be in the farewell hall, where someone will pick you up. In the past, I didn't take this road, but the special passage had to repair the line, and it was the only way. ”

"I see. ”

With that, I pushed the deceased slowly into the dark and dim corridor, the ceiling above me was an old-fashioned yellow-orange light bulb, flashing and shining, I don't know if it was caused by the unstable current or other factors.

Creak...... Creak......

The sound of the wheels of the cart echoes through the narrow corridors, making it particularly clear.

I looked at the corridor in front of me, and suddenly I felt that it was so much longer that I couldn't see the end at a glance.

I rubbed my eyes to slow down, and when I looked up again, my heart trembled.

I saw a long-haired woman standing at the end of the corridor, her body fluttering and shaking, her thick hair covering her cheeks, setting the atmosphere to freezing point.

Plop Plop Plop ......

My heart beat suddenly, and a layer of fine sweat oozed from my palms, and it was slippery on the armrest of the bed, as if it would be out of control in the next second.

I froze in place, I didn't know if I should move forward again, according to what Shen Yihuan said, the farewell hall was at the end of the corridor, so didn't I just have to face the long-haired woman?

I don't know where she came from, whether she is a human or a ghost, is it necessary for me to confront her head-on?

A series of questions came to my mind, including the Sadako girl from Sakura Country, and finally I came to the conclusion that I wouldn't mess with the long-haired woman at the end of the hallway.

Call......

A cold wind blew, and the white cloth covering the deceased was lifted in half, revealing a gloomy face.

Suddenly, I had a strong hallucination, and I always felt that the deceased in front of me was going to speak, or I was afraid that he would speak suddenly.

So I simply covered it with a white cloth and stood there with my teeth gritted.

"Young man, are you still leaving, don't delay me mopping the floor, or the curator will have to deduct the money again." ”

An aunt in overalls walked with a bucket and a mop, her face full of complaints, and a black mole on her chin was very conspicuous.

"Auntie, I want to ask......" I raised my hand and pointed to the end of the hallway, only to find that the long-haired woman was gone, and everything was calm again.

"What are you asking? Hurry up and push people away, otherwise you will have to deduct the money, are you going to the farewell hall?" the aunt pointed to the corridor with a mop rod, "Just turn around at the end, don't get the wrong direction." ”

"Okay, thank you Auntie, I'm just here, I'm not familiar with the road here, you've been working here for a long time, right?"

"I'm almost thirty years old, and I'm going to retire in two years. ”

"It's good that people like me who have just joined the workforce are the ones who are about to retire the most. "I deliberately put the conversation aside to make the atmosphere a little lighter.

But my aunt just smiled, as if she wasn't interested in my words, and buried her head and only knew how to mop the floor.

Seeing this situation, I couldn't talk about it anymore, so I had to bite the bullet and push the cart forward with both feet.

Near the end of the hallway, my heart almost jumped to my throat, afraid that the long-haired woman would suddenly appear and pounce.

Fortunately, what I feared didn't happen, and I pushed the deceased into the farewell hall without any problems.

"You're finally here, the family is waiting!" a young man in a suit hurriedly took the bed, he was the same guy who showed me the place in the restaurant yesterday.

Originally, I was a little dissatisfied with him, but now his words make me even more happy, what do you mean that you are finally here, as if the family members are waiting to see me off.

I replied coldly: "You're still too slow, thanks to the cleaning aunt just now, otherwise it's hard to say whether I can come." ”

The little brother was full of horror, and asked in a low voice, "Which cleaning aunt can't it be a black mole on the corner of her mouth, right?"
